Object Placement - Move Along Normal
Hi guys, just started the trial of Dash to better understand the tool and see if it fits my needs.
My initial main use for it is the Collection organization and placement of objects quickly and with good controls of the placement before the object is placed, for a better workflow. I have one question about that.
When I'm placing a object, is there a way to move it up and down in the Z Axis (relative to it's pivot point)?
I don't see an explanation for that in the tooltip that appears in this mode. And I didn't find a way to do that. But in some tutorial videos it seems that sometimes the objects are moved vertically relative to it's pivot points when in the Dash placement mode.
Thanks!

Hey! Welcome!
Yes there is, the tooltip could be improved for sure, but it is here: CTRL + SHIFT + MMB (middle mouse button)
Let me know if it works for you @Raphael Sanguinete 🙌
Hi Daniel, sorry for the late reply. I read your response and forgot to reply at the time.
What I discovered is that my mouse MMB click was not working (I think because a hardware problem).
As I don't use the MMB click so much, I didn't notice it before.
It's a Microsoft Comfort Curve Mouse, that has 2 additional buttons besides the classics LMB, MMB and RMB. So what I did was to remap in the Microsoft Mouse Center, so one of those additional buttons did the MMB function.
And it worked in Unreal as a hole, including when using Dash!
Thank you!!
Hey @Raphael Sanguinete no worries about the late reply!
